- “And then I heard some strange noises, evil laughing, growling, sounds of somebody pulling its leg, scratching on the board planks, something ripping off, and then footsteps... I was in the bedroom, listening to some nice old American songs, figuring out how to stop the music player because of the weird noises.”

Additionally, the presence of an oil rig suggests that there are alternative methods for resource gathering, which may alleviate some of the grinding typically associated with farming.

- “I spent hours collecting resources, but it feels like I'm just going in circles without any real progress.”
